Cove


Getting There
From Morro Bay go north on Hwy 1
It's about 40 miles north of Ragged Point
or 20 (relatively barren) miles north of Lucia.
Reviews say, "Don't eat at either Gorda or Lucia."
Notes
McWay Falls in Julia Pfeiffer State Park is south of Nepenthe.
Pay park if you want to use tunnel entrance to the cove.
Partington Cove has a real historical tunnel!
Park off a nondescript hairpin curve.
Take a fire road down and a bridge to the tunnel.
The tunnel was dug and used to haul goods from the cove.
